Chat corner 68: Droids

[annathecrow]

Welcome to this week’s chat corner!

Optional prompt

The topic for this week is “droids”. Star Wars is a franchise where the robots are characters as (or more!) beloved than many of the blood-and-bone ones. Do you have any favorites? Or un-favorites? What are your thoughts on droid sentience? And why do you think there hasn’t been a droid uprising yet? (…or has there?)

Well, the mouse droid could be Vader's favorite and thus get a ride on Vader's TIE fighter and avoid being blown up? And then we get an epilogue where the mouse droid joins Luke post-RotJ.

T7 is adorable. Fixit idea: Anakin finds T7-01 in the Temple basement and does not fall, because it's impossible to do so with T7 there to be all "T7 + Jedi = save the galaxy!" at him.

T7-01 & Anakin fix-it would be adorable. That's definitely going into my idea file! If you ever end up writing it, I'd love to read it.

And lol at Vader's favorite mouse droid. Maybe he was nice to it and it sneaked onto his TIE? Oh no, that is sweet. (And sad. Anakin, you murderous moron.)
